Sol De America v Olimpia

16 May 2010

Picture the scene. You are a 36-year-old Brazilian midfielder. Your team is going to be relegated from the Paraguayan top flight unless you can somehow overcome a team that is chasing the title. The referee flags for free kick just over the halfway line, some 45-yards from goal. Do you:

a) Punt it into the box, hoping that it will somehow create a goal scoring chance for a team mate.

b) Think 'I am Brazilian, why the hell am I captaining some shitty team in Paraguay that are not even good enough to stay in the top division. Is God punishing me or something? Even Kleberson got a chance to play for Man Utd. And he married a 14-year-old girl!' - before walking off the park in disgust and applying for a job at River Island.

c) Decide to try and batter into the top corner, even though the mathematical probability of it actually happening can be roughly equated to 1: 100000000.0000

Luckily for Inca, and fans of Sol De America, he ain't no mathematician and decided to opt for option 'C'. Cue amazing goal and much rejoicing after he saved his team from relegation. Afterwards the player said: "I would like to thank my team mates for trusting me to have a go and thanks to God that it was a goal."

It seems like old Inca isn't holding that Kleberson grudge against God after all. And it also proves that nice guys don't always finish last. Sometimes they finish second last.
